Love comes at its own time and takes us from the mundane into the extraordinary but to see it, feel it, know it, not for the feint hearted. The heart needs strength and fortitude and the will to survive through loss and grief and circumstance that twists its path into a maze with seemingly no exit. But the exit’s there with every turn for every corner holds the truth albeit closely to its breast like a mother would a child. That child is fed and nurtured but of love in this duality it bears the brunt of fire and ire and becomes as dust and grit in the eyes of the beholder. And that beholder’s you and me who meander in our suffering until we truly can believe love never leads us to a place that kills our free will choice to simply turn the corner and find the opening!

Love is our constant LIGHT companion, but with our beliefs we make it vulnerable to every little doubt and move of the air ... I always enjoy your poetic ponderings, dear Helen! Hope you are doing fine! Love and hugs. Margherita ![]() |
